Altered serum human cytomegalovirus microRNA levels are common and closely associated with the inflammatory status in patients with fever

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
BackgroundFever has a complicated etiology, and diagnosing its causative factor is clinically challenging. Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection causes various diseases.

Features of memory-like and PD-1+ human NK cell subsets

Frontiers in Immunology, 2016
Human NK cells are distinguished into CD56brightCD16- cells and CD56dimCD16+ cells. These two subsets are conventionally associated with differential functional outcomes and are heterogeneous with respect to the expression of KIR and CD94/NKG2 ...

A model for HCMV infection in immunosuppressed patients

Mathematical and Computer Modelling, 2009
We propose a model for HCMV infection in healthy and immunosuppressed patients. First, we present the biological model and formulate a system of ordinary differential equations to describe the pathogenesis of primary HCMV infection in immunocompetent and immunosuppressed individuals.

CD1d expression and invariant NKT cell responses in herpesvirus infections

Frontiers in Immunology, 2015
Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are a highly conserved subset of unconventional T lymphocytes that express a canonical, semi-invariant T cell receptor (TCR) and surface markers shared with the natural killer cell lineage.

Reduced progression of bone erosion in cytomegalovirus seropositive rheumatoid arthritis patients

Arthritis Research & Therapy, 2020
Background Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) seropositivity has been associated with higher inflammation during rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, no data are available on the impact of HCMV seropositivity on bone erosion progression during RA.

Human Cytomegalovirus-Encoded microRNAs Can Be Found in Saliva Samples from Renal Transplant Recipients

Non-Coding RNA, 2020
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infections are common following renal transplantation and may have long-lasting effects. HCMV can be measured directly by viral DNA or indirectly via host immune responses.

Modulation of cellular signaling by herpesvirus-encoded G protein-coupled receptors

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2015
Human herpesviruses are widespread infectious pathogens that have been associated with proliferative and inflammatory diseases. During viral evolution, human herpesviruses have pirated genes encoding viral G protein-coupled receptors (vGPCRs), which are ...

Prevalence of HCMV, HHV‐6, and HSV‐1/2 in the semen of men attending infertility clinics and their association with semen parameters

UroPrecision, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Viral infections have been identified as potential disruptors of male reproductive health. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), human herpesvirus 6 (HHV‐6), and herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2 (HSV‐1/2) DNA in semen samples from fertile and infertile men within the potential impact of ...

Artesunate repurposing for cytomegalovirus management: a systematic review of efficacy, mechanisms, and perspectives

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
BackgroundCytomegalovirus (CMV) is a prevalent opportunistic pathogen associated with significant morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised individuals, particularly transplant recipients and neonates. Current antiviral therapies are often constrained
